i agree,anyone that can only muster up tired covers and cheap remakes isnt worth being mentioned as a band

unless it is a specific covers band or as a covers album (eg sculpting from drake: various artists, pin ups: david bowie)

I think that just about sums it up for me too.
Not just bands but lead singers who imitate other singers styles.
For example;

Liam Gallagher copies John Lennon and Ian Brown.
Josh Stone with Janis Joplin.
And countless others...

I don't think that copying is a good thing, you shud definitly create your own style, but if there's someone who inspires you, a kinda role model... I don't see there's something wrong with that. Maybe this special person or band was the reason you got it somewhere.
I do sincerely believe that every single good band since then was/is inspired by the Beatles.
Josh Stone tries to copy Aretha Franklin as well. I dunno what people like bout her... I mean she's just a girl with a (to my mind) very forced voice. And her songs never caught me, they didn't sink in.

Being inspired and copying are two different things and there is nothing wrong with having a role model, however, when an artist intentionally rips-off another, (as is the case with those mentioned) I think it shows a lack of natural talent.
Much better to be inspired and model yourself on someone, providing you make that persona your own.

I also agree that Josh Stone's voice sounds forced and vocally she isn't fit to wipe Aretha Franklins arse.
When Josh Stone first started out, she was compared to Janis Joplin and her record company went along with it. Sadly, she was born in Devon... not Texas and I can't see her with a bottle of Jack Daniels on stage...can you?

inspiration is good within moderation..but there comes a point where your so inspired by an artist of the past you start to rip off their style.

Haha, never! Joss Stone is the last one who's worth being compared to Janis Joplin, apart from the fact that there's NO ONE worth being compared to Janis Joplin. I don't see any alikeness between Janis, the icon admired by a whole generation and Joss, the little girl trying so hard to appear mature.
Yeah, I agree with you. Copying and being inspired is definitely not the same. It's so sad that nowadays it depends on your look whether you're successful or not. Once upon a time (long, long ago though) talent and skills were decisive for popularity. Today, there appears another Britney double singing a cruel cover version of some beautiful, famous, old song and everybody's hilarious! Pathetic.

Yeah, I know excatly what you mean. Things like that shud be punished with death, because it's simply unjustified enrichment! If some artists knew what happened to their work, they would turn over in their graves.
